    I have been toying with the exact same concept stephen, only adding saving the file to a folder on my computer on top of those things. If I figure it out I will be sure to post it here for you.

    Check this post

    It has helped me some.

    Hi Split,

    Found this and got it to work


    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    you need to paste it into This Outlook Session not a seperate module

    Change the C:\temp\ to what ever on your hard drive also

    Change 'Set TargetFolderItems = Session.Folders.Item("Personal Folders").Folders.Item("Inbox").Folders.Item("JLP").Items'

    to wherever you move the files too..........

    hope it makes sense

    Re: Outlook, print pdf Save Attachment, Move Email To A Subfolder

    Sweet, please do keep me informed, my code that I will be using is a bit more complex, as I receive emails with attachments with the same name occasionally, I have a bit of code I use that checks to see if the file exists if it does then I am going to need to change the name to for instance 500178a instead of 500178. b,c,d, etc.

    I just re-read my first post, what I meant to say was kinda what I said above. Sorry lol.
